An applicant who has not previously attended any regional or Council on Occupational Education accredited postsecondary institution is eligible to be considered as a first-time student provided he/she meets the specified criteria.
To be eligible for admission to courses creditable toward an associate degree, a first-time college student must comply with the Selective Service Act (if applicable) and must meet one of the following criteria:
 |
The student holds the Alabama High School Diploma, the thigh school diploma of another state equivalent to the Alabama High School Diploma, or an equivalent diploma issued by a non-public regionally and/or state-accredited high school; or |
|
The student holds a high school diploma equivalent to the Alabama High School Diploma issued by a non-public high school and has passed the Alabama Public High School Graduation Examination; or |
|
The student holds a high school diploma equivalent to the Alabama High School Diploma issued by a non-public high school and has achieved a minimum ACT score of 16 or the equivalent score on the SAT; or |
|
The student holds the Alabama Occupational Diploma, the high school diploma of another state equivalent to the Alabama Occupational Diploma, or an equivalent diploma issued by a non-public high school, and has achieved a minimum ACT score of 16 or the equivalent score on the SAT; or |
|
The student holds a GED certificate issued by the appropriate state education agency. (A student who meets one of the above criteria shall be classified as “degree-eligible.”) |
Act No. 91-584 passed by the Alabama legislature requires that eligible individuals (males 18-26 years of age) must register with the U.S. Selective Service System before enrolling at an Alabama postsecondary institution.
All male students between the ages of 18 and 26 must certify compliance with the U.S. Selective Service System in accordance with ?36-26-15.1 of the Code of Alabama of 1974 (as amended) before enrollment at the College.
For unconditional admission, an applicant must have on file at the College (1) a completed application for admission, (2) either an official transcript showing graduation with The Alabama High School Diploma, the high school diploma of another state-equivalent to the Alabama high School Diploma, or an equivalent diploma issued by a non-public regionally and/or state accredited high school; or and official transcript showing graduation from high school with a high school diploma equivalent to The Alabama High School Diploma issued by a non-public high school and proof of passage of the Alabama Public High School Graduation Examination; or an official transcript showing graduation from high school with a high school diploma equivalent to the Alabama High School Diploma issued by a non-public high school and evidence of a minimum ACT score of 16 or the equivalent score on the SAT; or an official transcript showing graduation from high school with a high school diploma equivalent to the Alabama Occupational Diploma, the high school diploma of another state-equivalent to the Alabama Occupational Diploma or an equivalent diploma issued by anon-public high school, and has achieved a minimum SAT score of 16 or the equivalent score on the SAT; or an official GED certificate, (3) if applicable, an in-state residency form, and (4) if applicable, certification or compliance with the Selective Service Act.
An applicant may be admitted conditionally with the following provisions:
|
A completed admission application, in-state residency form, if applicable, and certification of compliance with the Selective Service Act, if applicable, are on file |
|
If the applicant has not forwarded an official transcript showing graduation from high school with a high school diploma or GED certificate, he/she may be granted conditional admission. No student shall be allowed to enroll for a second semester unless all required admissions records have been received by the College prior to registration for the second semester |
|
If all required admissions records have not been received by the College prior to issuance of the first semester grades, the grades will be reported on the transcript, but the transcript will read CONTINUED ENROLLMENT DENIED PENDING RECEIPT OF ADMISSIONS RECORDS. This notation will be removed from the transcript only upon receipt of all required admissions records |
Courses not creditable toward an associate degree are those with admission standards less than a high school diploma or GED. An applicant to courses not creditable toward an associate degree may be admitted provided the applicant meets the conditions of regular admission or in the case of a non-high school graduate or non-GED recipient, provided the applicant is at least 16 years of age and has not been enrolled in secondary education for at least one calendar year (or upon the recommendation of the local superintendent) and has specifically documented ability to benefit.
A student shall be classified as non-degree-eligible and shall not be allowed to enroll in a course creditable toward an associate degree unless the student meets the requirements for admission to a degree program.
